Or an elk.
They´re not as big as a moose, but we have such a large amount of elks running around in the woods, crossing the roads that there´s a national elk hunting period every year to keep the numbers down.
When you hit an elk with the car you push its legs away and it falls through the windshield into your lap so to say. Often with the result that the driver and/or passenger is/are killed. I´ve seen many elks crossing the road right in front of me, or just standing right beside the road. It´s a good reason to keep the speed down and drive a large car with "that thingie that blows up like a balloon" (my dictionary is really old, didn´t have that word
)
Congrats to your new car Saks. Drive safe and always arrive alive
